7. Save your token
   

Voila! You’re all set. The only remaining thing is to copy and paste your token into the config.yml file. Pretty simple, right?

Note

I highly recommend saving this token to a safe place in case you’ll reset your config. Try to not lose it, or you might need to redo all the steps above.

Tip

If you have multiple servers, you can use the exact same token for each config file.
